Singapore Chicken Recipe
I finally a home owner, we know what it is like to be Singaporean women.
The pampered, sheltered girl, whom most foreigners like nicknamed Singapore counterpart or stereotyped.
I think most Singaporean guys like to downgrade their females in the sexist comment.
Same goes for my man, Ronald. However, I think he is the tradition Chinese guy whom like to do that, and pushed me to be a better person. Ironic? I think not.
He has been teasing me that I do not know how to cook for ages. And I have been pushing off for ages, saying, when I get my house, I will learn how to cook.
I think it got pretty bad, when I started to self doubt myself, looking at all my friends, whom has forte , strength? What do I have?
I got down to buying the chicken.
THE CHICKEN |
- Chop Chop, chopping the head chicken. It was pretty sad thing to do, I see the half closed eyes of thechicken. I was hesitant to chop, but I needed dinner right? So I went ahead with it. CHOP!
- Washing insides of the chicken was nasty and pretty disgusting. (Get over and get done it)
- Massaging the Chicken with sea salt, subsquently, rubbing fine salt over the glinting chicken and the inside of it.
- Putting the spring onion and the garlic and ginger.
- Boiling the chicken for 5 mins , I transfer the chicken to narrower but taller pot that allows the water to cover the entire chicken. (Left over broth). It means that a pot that cover the chicken in the first place. Left the chicken to boil , make sure switch to low fire after the bubbles start to appear.
- Frying the garlic and the ginger, chopped the both
- Washed the rice, and took the left over broth when transfering and poured into the pot of rice , together with fried giner and garlic. Add the pandan leaf.
- THe chicken should ready by now after 1/2 hr , use a fork to poke it, poke poke. If it's poked through. It should be ready.
- Start choping again!!! If it is your first time chopping hide the ugly chopped chicken beneath the garnishing!
- The broth should come to a good use as soup, add a little salt, taste it and it would be ready to serve.
